Thanks Ben, looks amazing.
I don't think the trac metadata boxes should always be visible. They
are unobtrusive now and tbh, I don't think I will be opening them up
much when looking at tickets.
Simon, I think if you start the query with a # then it "works". For
example, search for #12088 instead of 12088.

TL;DR. Have a look at this [2] test import of GHC's Trac tickets. Tell us what issues you find.
Hello everyone,
As you likely know, we are currently in the process of consolidating GHC's infrastructure on GitLab [1]. The last step of this process is to migrate our tickets and wiki from Trac.
Towards this end I am happy to announce the availability of a test GitLab instance [2] for the community's review. This is a clone of gitlab.haskell.org but with the addition of tickets [3] and GHC wiki [4] content imported from a Trac dump from earlier this month.
There are a few known issues:
* There are currently around 50 tickets missing from the import; we are working on identifying where they escaped to
* The revision history of the Wiki is currently squashed due to performance issues [6] with GitLab's wiki implementation
We intend to resolve both of these problems by the time of the final migration. If you find a ticket on the staging instance with problems that are not in the above list please do add the `import problems` label to it so we can have a look.
There are a few aesthetic questions that could use community input:
* Should the "Trac Metadata" boxes be always visible?
* How do we make the Wiki index [7] more usable? Imposing more hierarchy to the page names would likely help but I'm still a bit worried that it will be hard to browse.
Please do take a few minutes to peruse the test import and check for mistakes or potential usability issues. GHC's Trac tickets are one of the crown-jewels of the project; we want to make sure we get this migration right as will be living with the result for a long time to come.
Cheers,
- Ben
